Description
This is Mona Warprunner… she’s a teleporter. I’m thinking about doing a series of pictures with her teleporting all sorts of places amid hectic action, time allowing. This picture is a good sum up of why I like comics so much. Gutter tricks. Playing with storytelling semiotics to convey a complex notion like teleporting. Comics are infinitely equipped with language and style to communicate this, as long as you know what you’re doing. Mastering the kung-fu. Fully exploiting the facets of the medium you work within. A random dude commented on some of the tricks I used in Cat and Meringue along similar lines. It’s almost like magic, working out a clever way of doing something in a system that’s existed for years, kinda like coding, or writing a clever app. The system and language of comics is evolving with every book and I LOVE being a part of it.
